Kinda like those mini display port to HDMI adapters. It'll be a little while yet before they pop out, but I would expect OWC to be one of the places to go to find the solution. Also, Thunderbolt connections are daisy-chainable just like FireWire. Lots of devices will have pass-through ports. Edited by zwei (03/30/11 12:09 PM) _________________________ zwei � twitter � Roku
